Kettleshulme (Old Norse Ketil's island or Ketil's watermeadow) is a village and civil parish in Cheshire, England. The village is close to the border with Derbyshire, on the B5470 road from Whaley Bridge to Macclesfield in the valley of the Todd Brook, a tributary of the River Goyt. In 2001, it had a population of 353.
Kettleshulme is on the boundary of the Carboniferous limestone and the Derbyshire, Cheshire shale and gritstone. The original settlement mainly consisted of a mixture of limestone and sandstone buildings, including the old church, built in the 19th century out of limestone quarried near Buxton, seven miles away. At 1,000 feet (300 m) above sea level, Kettleshulme is relatively high up which makes the weather cold at times but its location and climate make the land suitable for farming. The nearest weather station in Buxton recorded that the area has a mean temperature on average since 1969 up to the present day of 7.8.C and average rainfall per year of 1,286 millimetres (50.6 in).
